The Lover asked: How would you like me to touch you? The Lover answered: I would like you to touch me as if you were going away tomorrow, far far away, and you wanted to remember the feel of my body, the texture of my skin, the hills and valleys that make up the landscape […]
I do not love you except because I love you

Love
Because of you, in gardens of blossoming Flowers I ache from the perfumes of spring. I have forgotten your face, I no longer Remember your hands; how did your lips Feel on mine?

Falling in love
Well now really when we go back into falling in love. And say, it’s crazy. Falling. You see? We don’t say “rising into love.” There is in it the idea of the fall. And it goes back, as a matter of fact, to extremely fundamental things. That there is always a curious tie at some […]

If you choose to love an awakened woman, you cannot stay asleep. If you choose to love an awakened […]
We Are
We were one. One with the Universe, one with space, one with each other, one with ourselves. There was no beginning and no ending. We were; We caused ourselves to be. In the beginning, if there was such a thing, there was only the Desire to be, to experience, to be unique, to be aware of […]
A Great Wagon
When I see your face, the stones start spinning! You appear; all studying wanders. I lose my place. Water turns pearly. Fire dies down and doesn’t destroy. In your presence I don’t want what I thought I wanted, those three little hanging lamps. Inside your face the ancient manuscripts Seem like rusty mirrors. You breathe; […]
